So I have to agree from time to time REted will post a write up on a turbo that he knows absolutly nothing about.
Yeah, you're right.
I guess I don't know what I'm talking about when I had the turbo in my hand.
Can you say the same?
I guess it's an impossibility that A'PEXi could've changed the CHRA since then...since you're dragging up an issue that's over a year old.
I guess you conveniently forgot the point that the AX75 that I got to see what the very first one brought into the U.S.
Spank me?
Think again...

Here's some friendly advice...threadjacking is frowned upon and makes you look like a n00b.

Is this on an FD or FC? I haven't tried fitting a turbo that large, but from looking at my HKS cast manifold you can't fit anything larger than a 60-1 / TO4S without interferring with the inner fender/ side of the engine bay. Does a turbo with this large a frame actually FIT with an HKS cast manifold?

It is going to be fitted to a FB. I saw a person with the HKS cast manifold on a FB. It just came in a package deal. If I need to I will just get a custom one made.

Uh, so what's your point?

The AX75 I saw was definitely not BB center.

...and yours is.

Does this make me a liar?

That's the point you need to consider.

Ok, Just recieved my AF61 yesterday and I placed it on the manifold. There is plenty of room to the inner fender wall. Just thought that you guys would want to know.
